    Aggressive Inline literally has become my favorite extreme sports game to date.

    Like the difference between a fight in real-life (scrappy, brawling, inelegant) and a fight from your favourite movie (balletic, graceful, dynamic), buy this if you like to see two blokes battering each other into submission. If you like a bit of style, skill and excitement with your violence, don't bother.

    I stand in absolute awe of how underrated F1 2002 is.

    What is there that's new could be passed on, and the different options, excluding hold, create an all too easy Tetris. There are other Tetrises out there that do it better.

    It’s addictive and much more varied than the original...The combination of the RPG aspects and the real-time/turn-based battle system is the main draw for this unique game.

    It combines great visuals, good sound effects and good overall music, and is solid as a pinball game.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Although there’s no multiplayer, the replay value is durable, not to mention the nicely done graphics and the incredibly impressive sound.

    With the game’s inherent frustration factor, Bomberman Max 2 will be a game players return to once in a while and just pick up and play for a little while.

    Don’t be fooled by the Muppet brand – Muppet Pinball Mayhem is a solid pinball game that will have you coming back for more.

    Ends up being a pretty bad, even for a movie licensed game, which will only appeal to young girls that would enjoy a horse taming simulation, with or without the license.

    Sound for this game is very poor.

    • 65 Critic Score
    The rigid and debilitating controls work very much against the game. While it may be the prettiest soccer game on the Gamecube, it's not the best.

    It’s like that delicious piece of cake you receive at a party; scrumptious but anything but filling. Such is this, short indeed but an enjoyable experience while it lasts.

    Making a game that requires the user to move a cube in all directions with a D-pad is tough. This causes a major flaw in the control scheme.

    This game is the shiznit. It’s the best game on the Game Boy Advance.
    • 77 Metascore

    Unfortunately, there are major problems in the gameplay that will make just about any player go on strike.

    There may be some people in this world who revel in this degree of complexity, but the rest of us mere mortals may wish for something a little less taxing.

    Take decent sound and graphics, and inject unoriginal platforming with a kid’s license and you have Dinotopia.

    Star X had a lot of promise – the game opened up superbly. But as the game went on – with twenty-three levels in all, I just didn’t feel like going on.

    The visuals are pretty darn good. Characters are large enough to see some decent detail, and they animate nicely. The levels are equally impressive.
    • 73 Metascore

    A fun, original platformer that introduces some fun things to the genre, that, if explored more deeply in a sequel, could put the game up there with the best.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A solid game that might not make enough use of the license in terms of plot and overall presentation, but it’s certainly fun and there are a wide variety of obstacles and environments throughout the game although much of it may be frustrating.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Even though it’s very fun, it’s just over way too fast.

    Nothing on a technical level is incompetent in Britney’s Dance Beat, but nothing is done so well as to make it fun outside of its core audience.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    To put it bluntly, this game is not good at all...The utter repetitiveness of hearing the same 20 second beat again and again made the sound more pain than pleasure.

    The camera hampers the experience considerably, but the fun of the main game itself is still there.

    If you can get over the repetition of asking people about the same things (you do get new information so it is helpful to do so), you will get right into the game and play for quite a long time.

    Guys who are worried about their masculinity might cringe, but girls, and guys who are interested in being entertained, will probably enjoy some aspect of the game.

    An above average game surrounded by overachieving games make Crash Bandicoot: The Huge Adventure a game only platformer fans or Crash fans will really want to buy, but when they do, they won't regret it.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 10 Critic Score
    The average replay value I’d approximate for any player of this game would be no more than five minutes. Heck, halfway through one game, you won’t even want to finish the game.
